I always enjoy passing on news of a good flight deal when I see one and with airfares prices like this it's hard to see how the idea that travel is always expensive persists.
If you have the ability to take advantage of some of these deals from low-cost airline WOW Air (based out of Iceland) I'd be excited to hear about it.
Currently https://wowair.us/flights/best-fares/ is showing one way fares starting as low as $69 USD in September, October and even November 2017 for city pairs such as:
Departing:
- Los Angeles
- Miami
- San Francisco
- Washington DC
- Pittsburgh
Arriving:
- Berlin,
- Brussels
- Copenhagen
- Dublin
- Edinburgh
- London
- Paris
- Stockholm
Even "lesser" cities such as Detroit are options with higher -but still fairly cheap- prices such as $150 one-way.
Obviously most people need round trip flights so finding a cheap return is important if you want to keep the price as low as possible but there seem to be many options that keep the total price under $400 USD or even under $300 USD depending on city pair.
Keep in mind that WOW is a low-cost airline so these super-cheap fares are not inclusive of checked or carry on baggage apart from a small personal item. They also include a stop in Reykjavik which can be viewed as a bonus or an annoyance. The good thing is that when it comes to in-flight options you can choose what add-ons are important to you.
I actually like this model in some cases. For example I've flown Spirit in an extra legroom section and enjoyed it much more than flying Southwest which is theoretically a better airline for comfort and customer service. In that particular instance I only needed to bring a personal item so having more legroom was much more useful to me than being able to bring extra luggage as I would have been able to do with Southwest.
